"When initially contacted, they promptly came out and estimated the job. As the estimator was a certified Arborist, he was able to knowledgeably answer my questions about the trees on my property. The bid was very reasonable, and lower than the two other bids I received. Once I contracted with them, they came out within a week and did a great job. Professional, polite, and hardworking. I was very satisfied and am having them do more work this fall."

"They removed 3 very large trees one was completely rotted out in the center. These trees were very close to my garage and the neighbors privacy fence. They was able to bring the trees down safely with no property damage. They also took down 4 smaller trees. The stumps were ground then dirt brought in, ground leveled, and grass planted. My yard is completely transformed. Great company great crew. Professional service."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

A tree can split because of high winds, a change in temperature, or from an infestation or tree disease. All of these factors can overlap, making a single cause difficult to pinpoint. While winter storms are some of the most common causes for a tree to split, it can also happen because of termites or rot.

Often, it’s the homeowner’s responsibility to handle the aftermath when a neighbor’s tree falls on their property. But if a tree has been obviously dead for a significant period of time and caused damage when it fell, a case can be made that the owner should have removed it, especially if the neighbor wrote you a letter about the tree or asked you to take it down. This can be grounds for a successful lawsuit in claims court and is a good reason to always pay attention to your trees and remove dead trees before they fall.

State and local laws vary, but in most cases, you are allowed to trim any branches from your neighbor's tree that cross your property line. However, it's important to ensure you do not damage the overall health of the tree in the process. Removing branches incorrectly can jeopardize the health of the tree and could lead to you being on the hook to replace it.

The typical lifespan of a Bradford pear is relatively short, only 15 to 25 years. However, these trees have issues long before their life is over. Due to their soft wood and fast-growing branches, Bradford pear trees often split around 15 years, making them a risk for falling branches and more prone to disease. 

Generally, no, tree topping isn’t a good technique, and you should avoid using it in most cases. Tree topping may be the only good option to save a tree following severe damage after a storm, but in most other cases, it’s not the right choice. Tree topping can leave trees vulnerable to disease and further damage, and most pros will suggest against it.
